He must be a good teammate, because the difference is night and day.

So am I to believe there are no plays where Kush outperforms Daniels...?

Kush has been the worst offensive lineman on the Bears this season. Daniels should have replaced him week 1.
This is a little concerning, either Daniels is too Special person to pick up the playbook or linemen reads, or the coaching staff is inept. Either one is kinda shitty.

To be fair on screens the backside OLmen is often suppose to look to peel back on any defender that is closing on the screen if they don’t have immediate work in front of him.

That being said, James Daniels is better and he can play.

My guess is the playbook is actually really complex and instead of limiting the plays you can run and opening the offense up to possible errors they made sure he had it fight before putting it out there.
1 it protects the offense and the playcaller
2 It protects the player from scrutiny and possible unwarranted blame.

Kush is more experienced and right now the better player. Lets not kid ourselves based on screen passes

You mean he isn't supposed to run 5 yards upfield and block people before the ball's away?
Daniels fucked up on a screen pass by late recognition and pickup, forcing him back into the catcher causing an incompletion but overall he's looked VG and should start soon.
Watching his play, I think the G move is a good one. That mobility will come in handy to spring guys at the edge like in the vid. He's also got a good anchor and will only get stronger at the point of attack. He's gonna be a good one.

Yeah seems obvious Kush is suppose to seal off anyone that may attempt to tackle the RB from behind and the RB already has two lead blockers.
In the clip with Daniels, it appears 72 is the one that is suppose to block behind him with Daniels forming one of the 2 lead blockers.
I would say Kush was still too slow to turn his head around once it was clear no one was in position to make a tackle from behind. Should have been able to quickly check and then swing back forward which if he had, he probably makes a block on the dude with the dreads that forces the cutback.

Wrong the play youre referring to was snuffed out from the beginning there were 2 defenders in the area and Mitch still threw him the ball.
